Re: [opensuse] Firefox profile not working on a vfat partition. Permissions I think.
Great News. Thanks for the help. I did add a comment about this to
bugzilla @ the Mozilla website (bug # 309645) which seemed like the same
exact problem I was having, but I did not get any response from Mozilla.
Please let me know if I should do anything about this (if you know).

Hi,

just to let you know. We fixed it and it will be made available at least with our upcoming Firefox 1.5 package. I'm not sure if we will get an official update for this problem for 10.0. But when Firefox 1.5 will be finally released you can get it from ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/mozilla/ (release candidates will be available in the experimental subtree in addition but there is no package with the fix yet. If you'll see a change in the packages in experimental/firefox the fix will be in there)
